New Year fishing safety and goals plan on water
The writer outlines resolutions to follow Texas Parks and Wildlife rules, keep running and anchor lights working, and ensure a charged fire extinguisher. He recalls a New Year’s Eve water-check by a game warden over a red gauge. He admits not always wearing a life jacket but urges personal and family safety. He aims to fish more, despite time constraints, and promotes joining a fishing club for skills and knowledge.
Fishing conditions ease after two rough days at sea
Weather favored anglers on Sunday and Monday but tides stayed low by one to two feet below normal. Captain Nap reports most boats struggled to launch at Moses Lake Marina except for a jow bat. Winds shift south this afternoon and stay through Thursday, raising hope for better fishing mid to late week. Happy New Year.

Rumors swirl about Stephenville naming a new head coach to replace Art Briles, with Mike Copeland favored and T.J. Mills or Alan Weddell also discussed.
